Total Mental Performance Scott MacDonald: FTSE 100 consultancy to elite-performance coaching
This week on the Total Mental Performance Podcast I sit down with my good friend Scott MacDonald - Advisor to FTSE 100 & global boards, ultramarathon runner, former pilot and high-performance coach to CEOs and elite performers.
This podcast could easily have been a 4 hour episodeβ¦
We dive into:
π΅ Lessons from the cockpit π why fighter pilot training is one of the ultimate laboratories for mental resilience.
π΅ Leading global transformations π the insights Scott gained helping organisations change at scale and working side-by-side with CEOs.
π΅ Identity shifts after peak careers π why so many athletes and ex-military struggle once the adrenaline and structure disappear.
π΅ Flow, joy & presence π how to find your βnew version of sparringβ that brings aliveness without burning out
π΅ Life by design π moving beyond drifting into a career or lifestyle, and consciously building a life that energises you.
Scottβs story is a masterclass in resilience, clarity, and creating a life that actually feels worth living.
